Marvel Zombies Images Reveal First Look At Team Of Zombie MCU Heroes
At Comic-Con, Marvel Zombies images showed a first look at the Disney+ show. Marvel Zombies is a concept that originated with the comic book miniseries of the same name that ran from December 2005 to April 2006. The original run, from writer Robert Kirkman and artist Sean Phillips, followed a zombie outbreak in the Marvel universe caused by the arrival of a hero from another dimension. The virus, which causes people to become undead and ravenous for human flesh, infects many of the established heroes from the Avengers, X-Men, and the Fantastic Four, and they thus pose more of a threat than normal zombies because they retain their superpowers. The world is also threatened by the imminent arrival of Galactus, heralded by the Silver Surfer.
Last year, the Disney+ animated anthology series What If...? premiered an episode titled «What If...Zombies?!,» introducing the zombie concept to the MCU for the first time and inspiring talk of a zombie-centric animated spinoff. That show is now officially a go, expanding that vision of the universe, which involves Janet van Dyne infecting Hank Pym with a quantum virus when he discovers her in the Quantum Realm. Marvel Zombies is set to premiere on Disney+ in 2024, incorporating an expanded cast of characters from the Marvel stable including some who were introduced to the MCU after What If...? aired, like Kamala Khan from Ms. Marvel.
